Could you survive without electricity?

It is difficult to think about a like without it. How can I switch on my computers??? I will go for another source of energy like LPG or biogas.

it is difficult to manage without electricity and there would be many difficulties. in india we have more of power cuts for long hours and manier times it is daily we experience power cuts and hence it is common and need to somehow manage and there are sometimes power problems if there is a thunder strikes also and it is common. but here in europe and all we don have those problems and it is so good and comfortable.

I certainly wouldn't die without electricity. Sure, some things would be inconvenient. My stove and oven are electric, so I wouldn't be able to do any traditional cooking, but I've been camping enough times to know how to cook without a stove. And pretty much everything else electric is not really necessary to life.

Sure I would know. But, it would not be easy. We have been spoiled by electricity for so long. It will be hard to coop without it. But, we could manage. Lighting candles, playing guitar and singing, burning fire to make dinner. Reading more books. Oh my, NO MORE MYLOT!!!! That is terrible! Take care, have a nice weekend.

Probably not. If I had to live with out my computer and TV too, I would more than surely die. I don't know what I would do. I would probably be out of work too since I work on computers. So I would have even more spare time to deal with not having electricity. I would probably read a lot. I could handle not having lights, but not having my TV or computer, I would most certainly go insane.

if it is worldwide that has no electricity and I guess I have no choice but to leave with it but if it is only in our place that has no electricity I would surely migrate to a certain place in which there is electricity..... I don't know but I cant leave for the fact that I can open my pc for a day I guess I will go mad ....lol

If it's only for one day, then I can still bearable with it, as I've experienced with power knock out quite often back in my hometown. It's just that we can't enjoy all the entertainments, such as television and computer, also we will have to tolerate with the heat as the fan is not working. We still have candles to light on, and we spend time sitting in the living room together and chit chat, as we have nothing else better to do. It's considered a good gathering time for the family too. I'd rather live without electricity than without water supply. It's really suffering if there's no water supply.

I'm sure that I would survive but I would defenatly be miserable!! I am defenatly a slave of electricity.

I could survive without electricity for sure! People did it for centuries, there is no reason why we can't!

Last summer, in my area, there was about 3 days, when there was no electricity. I had to live with it, but I was really going crazy. I was really bored out of my mind. I was lucky that I had to work, so that I had something to do. But when I was home, I couldn't stand not having any electricity. I was so happy, when I called home, after work, and my sister told me that we had electricity back.

I live in Florida so we've survived without electricity for days following big storms. We could survive fairly easily down here because we don't have to worry about extreme cold and, because we're inland in the country, we can cook with wood if we ran out of propane or charcoal for the grills. I'd miss the internet terribly though but I'm sure the family would spend more time together without the distractions of that, video games and television.

If a solar pulse make all the power plant shut down, and all electric device broken. May be i am begin to be a farmer. I can grow plant to make food, rise chicken anything like that. Of course we can survive with out all this think. But it can be frustate for a while. But as time go, it will be familliar.

I think i would be fine to survive. Atleast for a little while. I think that it would be fairly easy to find food that did not need to be cooked. You could always build a fire or use a grill to cook food. Candles and flashlights could be used when it got dark and the sun should be enough light to survive in the daytime.

I have gone without electricity for short periods of time and I have long been a supporter of the idea of going off the grid at least partially. I would survive but it would be difficult to get to food sources since everything in the modern world is connected to electricity in one way or another. People in hurricane threatened areas are used to making do without it for limited periods of time.
